Tip: Japan Tourist Visa Application(very helpful-LINK inside) THREAD 2

[ayami]

^oh my, sorry to hear about your experience sa Reli sis. I've heard pangit nga raw sa SM Mega branch that's why some of my friends ay sa Makati branch nag apply.

Discovery tour pa rin talaga bet ko. Mabilis sila. Si friend na nag Reli Makati inabot ng 9 business days ata bago natawagan ni Reli. Imagine the torture sa paghihintay kung approved ba or not.

Regarding ME, nakakuha on my second application. 0 income dineclare ko (housewife kuno lol). Ang theory ko naman dyan sa second visa ME na yan for sure hehe pero upon backreading hindi rin pala.

[honeybunny]

^^reli tours din ako sa megamall. Wala namang bad experience at all. I just followed the instructions online kung ano requirements kelangan. As long as complete walang problema. Got my visa within a week.

[Annie M.]

^ako rin reli megamall eh, and my experience was good. complete papers, too.

pero looking back, baka may downside because they keep removing documents, saying di kailangan. halimbawa, one bank statement only. eh pano kung 2 yung bank mo? one ITR only daw, but what if you have a main job and a business? and worst of all, they don't allow you to attach photocopies of your other OECD visas na nasa old passport. so the consul will not see na well-traveled ka kung lahat ng visa mo is nasa old passport and you are just passing the new passport.    i hope they change this policy.

Regarding Reli, I think that service can be improved. When I applied for mine kase, sa Friendship ako nagpunta. Super good experience. We just chose Reli kase nagbaba ng price to 950 na lang (cheapskate hehe).

On the visa naman, from last Saturday na finally na-submit ang application, got them back yesterday. Lahat ng family members ko multiple yung na-grant. First time applicants. No request made for multiple entry.

[riandrew]

got mine too, 5 years multiple!

UHI pa din kami kumuha, may promo citibank eh. 25% off. hehe sayang din.

[candygrenade]

^ Congratulations!

Highly recommended ko din ang UHI

[IamCessy]

Question po mga sis. Can I include certificates ng stock market sa application ng visa? Nagwoworry kasi ako baka hindi enough yung amount sa bank namin para maapprove. Thanks!

[darna88]

if hindi parents ang mag guguarantor sa minor na bata ok lang ba? bale yun lolo ang mag guguarantor kasi mas malaki ITR ni lolo eh ..pwede ba yun or need talaga mismo parents? pero mismo arents may multipe 5 year japan visa naman na... pls advice ty

[bluebeads]

Hi Darna!

I'm not 100% sure ah, but I guess better if you call the agency na you prefer.

Kasi from my friend's experience, may Visa na yung parents nya, pero ang "guarantor" niya, uncle niya because walang work yung parents niya and nagka visa lang rin dahil same uncle ang guarantor.

They presented lang a letter na parang this uncle (or sa case mo Lolo), has enough money to cover the person's plane ticket, hotel, activities food etc.

Present the itinerary and the bank statement of the Lolo.  To show the computation na the lolo will support.

Not 100% fool proof, but you can ask. =)

[khaleesiCersei]

Hi sis bluebeads! May i ask how much handling fee sa UHI?

[100%K]

^1,200 

[darna88]

[Annie M.]

^i think you need to mention the main attractions you are visiting plus your hotels.
the travel agency usually provides a form called SCHEDULE OF STAY.
ganito sya: http://www.willflyforfood.net/uploads/food-travel2/japan/visa/sos.jpg

you can download those forms sa website ng travel agency. hope this helps!

Hi! Mga sis need your advice. What are the chances na mabigyan kami ng visa ng 6 yr old daughter ko dalawa lang kami magtravel mainly Disney talaga for her kasi. I have my regular work and a business naman. Im just concern bka maquestion na hindi kami naka tour group since dalawa lang kami. Also what is ?HI"that I read? San marecommend niyo na agency who can assist us apply for the Visa and suggest please ng itinerary for the kiddo? Thank you so much sa sasagot.

[minnie99]

As long as the documents can show that you can support your itinerary, lalo na may business ka maybe you can submit those documents too. To establish na babalik ka.

I've tried Rajah, okay naman. I don't like Reli dahil hindi sila nagpapa-submit ng extra documents. Hehe.

Hi sisses i applied our Jp visa sa flight center (travelpro) in sm aura. Quick processing 5-7days lang raw. Subagent sila ni Uhi but they charger cheaper processing fee. And very efficient yung agent ko, they retyped the whole application kasi not in A4.
Whats good, they allowed to attached my old passports where my valid US visa and schengen attached
We will know by next week so praying for good result.

[IamCessy]

Just applied through Reli nung Saturday. Mga kelan kaya lalabas visa namin if ever? Thanks! Sana approve! *cross-fingers* 

[shygirlme]
